THRILLS COLLEGE
Irish' Poet Tells Delightful
Stories of Moore, Yeats
and Others.
EXPLAINS NEW IDEAS
A gentle, caressing voice, so undrama-
tized that it was almost monotonous, held
a large crowd in Taylor Hall absolutely
spellbound for an hour and a half last
Friday night. .This voice was the voice
of George William Russell, Irish poet
and economist, whose gray-bearded,
patriarchal figure aroused in his audience
a sympathy which his words soon in-
creased to entiiusiasm. He would speak,
he said, on some personalities in the Irish
literary movement; but to him, who was
their intimate friend, they were men and
women, rather than literary figures;
people who, like himself, desired passion-
ately a harmony between their inner and
outer worlds, and thereby caused a great
commotion in Ireland.
Ireland Robbed of Native Culture.
In his boyhood, Mr. Russell went on,
be and his friends lived in a "kind of
imaginative fever. Since the Act of
Union in 1800, which made English.the
prescribed language for all of Ireland,
the -Gaelic culture, cycles of legends and
poems going back to the time of the
Gauls, locking up the memory and im-
agination of a people for hundreds of
3-ears, had been submerged. Ireland,

MATHER'S SECOND TALK
BLANKS ARE REAdV
What Are Orals?
Grading Based on General
Knowledge�Too Many-
Preconceived Ideas.
"One of the most startling examples
�of preconceived ideas," said Miss
Schenck in chapel on F;:i-;.. �T_vu~~-V
17, "is the Freshman conception of the
Orals."_
"The examinations are called 'orals'
because they were formerly given orally.
The students came up ,for the exam in
the office of the President and were after-
wards locked" in the chapel until the pas-
sage was changed. This examination,
Tieard before a fearsome committee con-
sisting of the President, the head of the
French department, and any other stray
member of the faculty, proved to be
more a test of nerve than a test of a
"knowledge of the language. 'For this
Teason a change in the form was thought
advisable.
"The present three-part examination
consists of one sight passage to test the
tasic knowledge of the student; � MttU>
mary passage for those who have been
taught the language entirely in French;
and a dictionary passage, since a reading
knowledge implies that the student is
able to get the complete thought if a
-dictionary is at hand.
"Many curious suggestions have been
bandied about as to how the Orals are
graded. Passing, however, does, not de-
pend on the number of mistakes in the
paper, but whether or not the student
seems to be able to handle the language
and convey what it is all about.
"There are two methods of preparing
for the Oral. The college provides spe-
cial courses of extra-curricular work for
those going up for the examination; but
as it is impossible to teach a language in
so short a time, these courses are in-
tended only to show the student how she
may learn by herself.
"Those who are preparing themselves
outside of the courses provided should
keep in mind four important things: first,
read what interests you, but vary your
authors; second, stop every so often and
go over one of the old- examination
papers; third, don't use word lists in-
terminably; learn words by association,
and last but not least, know the distinc-
tions between the similar French verbs.
"Do not feel disheartened if you fail
the first time, for there js always France
as the" last resort A summer of con-
sistent study in a country where the in-
habitants do not habitually speak English
cannot fail to get you through the fall
trial."
The policy of the Scholarship Com-
mittee in the awards to be made in the
future was the subject of Dean Man-
ning's talk in chapel Monday morning.
February 20. It has for many years
be.en the policy of both Committees to
give the named scholarships awarded in
each year to the best applicants basing
their judgment largely upon the aca-
demic record. To applicants whose work
was satisfactory and whose record on
the whole was not so good Grants in Aid
have been given to assist them to return
to college.
"We now wish to make a more definite
distinction between the Scholarships and
the Grants, and have, therefore, prepared
two forms of application blanks. The
application blanks for Grants will still
contain the detailed questions with' re-
gard to the exact amount of money
needed in order to enable the student to
return to college. Such grants will be
given in connection with loans from the

"Freedom In a law-abiding world" was
the subject of Df Kirtley Mather's lec-
ture on Friday evening. February 17.
This was the second lecture given here
by Dr. Mather, who is professor of
Geojogy at Harvard.
A Scientific God of Law.
"We have learned recently that men
of religion and scientists can get along
together, that there is a reasonable bond
between them. Therefore it is only fajr
that we should adopt the same attitude
toward them. As it is. the man in the
street applauds tbe announcements of
scientific discoveries, but regards new
theories'in religion as sure signs of decay.
This is obviously unfair. In.theology as
in any other natural science you must be
destructive in order to he constructive,
and the same freedom should lie given
to every scientist, whatever his field. The
discovery that our world is law-abiding
has of necessity set aside many of the
old deistlc views and disturbed a great
number of people. But the discovery that
the administration is acting in and
through material things has given us the
assurance that God is consistent and
trustworthy. His method of operation is
uniform. A God of law is congenial to
scientific minds.
"But new knowledge has a habit of
bringing problems with it, and this one
is apparent to all. If He is a God of
Law, how can He be a God of Love%

President Speaks on
Use of Sdurce Material
"A warning to the Freshmen" was the
subject of Miss Park's talk in chapel
on Wednesday, February 15. Several
Freshmen made rather bad mistakes and
it may have been because the question
of. academic work was not clear to all
of them. �
The college expects honest and In-
dividual work -from all students. There
is a" general understanding of this fact
as included in the7 word integrity when
applied to examinations, from early
school and family training. In spite of
general knowledge, however, there are
misapprehensions. Any method by which
the student can get ahead of the in-
structor, or vice versa, seems fair. But
when the instructor asks a question, he
is not seeking for the correct answer-
he knows that already; he wants to see
what the student has gotten from the
course, to get a picture of the student's
misapprehensions or understanding.
Marks simply designate whether this pic-
ture is excellent, good or poor. If the
picture is individual work, the mark is
fair, but in case* of dishonesty it has no
meaning.
The same thing applies to all written
work�reports and papers as well as
quizzes. To use another's work is like
making a speech that is furnished by
an agency. There is no meaning to it.
There are advantageous ways in which
you can use the material of another; a
wide variety of sources adds a richness
to your work, but these must be covered
by the flavor of your own personality
and viewpoint.
Two other points must be mentioned.
It is essential that papers be in on time;
the instructor has no responsibility for
giving credit to a late paper. Second,
in case of illness it is your responsibility,
not that of your instructor, to see that
your work is satisfactorily made up.
Once a month, urtJer the auspices of
the Social Service Committee of C. A.,
a group of Bryn Mawr students have
been meeting with industrial working
girls from the Germantown Y. W. C. A.
to discuss industrial problems. These
groups, which take up such topics as
Trade-Unions, Social Insurance and
working conditions, meet alternately here
and in Germantown. Last Saturday one
of these meetings took place at Bryn
Nfawr. Miss Mary Kelsey, who was con-
nected with the Friends' .Reconstruction
Committee after the war and who con-
ducts a sort of International school of
discussion in France during the summer,
presented a report on conditions in the
coal fieldsv in western Pennsylvania,
which is staitling enough to justify its
full quotation here, though space does
not permit more than a few excerpts.
Miss Kelsey has studied mining condi-
tions in England and Wales, and has just
finished this survey of the Pennsylvania
mines.
Known ot in Europe.
"It is a curious fact," the report .be-
gins, "that the coal strike now in prog-
ress in the bituminous fields of western
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Illinois, and in-
volving some 65,000 men, is today prob-
ably more widely known and discussed
i i Europe than it is in America. . . .
The present struggle actually began in
1925 when the Pittsburgh Coal Co.
abrogated the 'Jacksonville Agreement,
signed in 1924 with the United Mine
Workers. This action was followed by
the refusal of other companies in the
aiea to renew their contracts, on the
ground of losses due to a falling mar-
ket. . . ."

large losses to the mine owners, who
sought to overcome their difficulties in

Lists Wanted
The Office of the Director of
Publications wishes to remind all
-students to have their May Day
lists in by the end of this week.
These lists are to help the college
in circularizing people for May
Day and should contain the names
of anyone, who you think would
be interested. .
The lists should be as long as
possible but should. not contain
the names of any alumnae, who
will receive notices anyway.
N'amcs submitted for patronesses
should lie those of people willing
to buy a good many tickets or to
help in some other way.
Students are expected to volun-
teer to address these notices, each
Hall helping one day of the week.
Tea will be served in order to

Seniors Show Highest
Average Gain in Tests
The Intelligence Examination which
was held on December 3 and 7 of 1927
for Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors,
has been scored, tabulated and recorded.
The number of Seniors who took the
examination was fifty-six. There were
thirty-five Juniors and fifty-five Sopho-
mores who participated, making a grand
total of one hundred and forty-six.
The average gain of the three classes
was:
Sophomore Class .................. 2.6
Junior Class ...................... 3.8
Senior Class ......................5.3
The change in- score for the two appli-
cations of the examination ranges from
plus twenty-five to minus fifteen. The
order of merit for increase in score in
the second examination over the first
examination is as follows:
Name Increase
Esther Dikeman............ 25 points
Elvira de La Vega ..........21
Pamela Burr ...............20 "
Helen Guiterman...........19
Rebecca Bryant ............. 19
Helen Hook ................ 18 "
Ruth Gardner^............... 17
Jean Huddleston ..........<. 17 ' "
Edith Baxter ............... 17 "
Elizabeth Wilson ............ 16 "
Mary L. Williams ........... 16 "
Margaret Morgan........-----16
The order of merit where gain is the
same is based on the score in the first
examination.
It is not as yet known in which mental
capacities the gains were made, but the
individual tests in the examination are
now being analyzed and as soon as this
is completed interviews for those stu-
dents who desire to have them will be
scheduled.
RELIGION ROBBED.
OF ITS RADIANCE
Canadian Minister Says We
Have Lost Spiritual
Adventure.
DIG CLOSE AT HAND
"The Kingdom,of Heaven is like unto
a treasure Hidden in the field," was the
text of the sermon by the Rev. Russell
Roberts. Sherbourne Church,, Toronto,
who spoke in chapel on Sunday, Feb-
ruary 19.
"The tragedy of religion lies in the
fact that its divine wings may eventually
become a burden. After the first great
careless rapture the lustre is dimmed,
and the end ceases to call us. It is idle
tc deny that when religion reaches that
point, it becomes dull and inadequate
It no longer appeals to us as a pearl of
great price, moving mountains and build-
ing cities.
System Dims Religion.
"How does it happen that religion can
become so dimmed for us?
"In the first place, it is a tendency
of the human intellect to construct
religion into a system; to integrate it
into a watertight scheme, and then to
call in the undertaker. But in so doing
we defeat our purpose. For we have
unconsciously - put ourselves away from
the apocolypse and adventure, and have
destroyed all the romance and poetry
which religion can bring to us.
"The dimness may be due in the sec-
ond place to the incompetency of the
present-day minister. He is apt to be too
formal and professional.
"But it is highly probable that our at-
titude toward religion is due to
inertia. In our mad desire to settle into
vegetative respectability, we have robbed
-religion of its radiance and left it an

The green, as always, will play an im-

types of dances to be done are being
held now. These dances are to include
the dance of the Sweeps with their
Jacks, three sets of Morris dancers with
their fools, hobby horses, and Toms, or
with their Kings and Queens, and three
sets of sword dancers, dressed as Eliza-
bethan sailors There will also be vari-
ous country dances, some performed by
the village folk, and so.ne by the gentles,
in court costume. There is no dancing
ir.cluded in the plays which have been
chosen for presentation this year, and
'there is to be no masque. On the other
hand, the people who would otherwise
have taken part in the masque will do
gypsy and shepherd dancing on the green.
Anyone, whether she cares to take part
in the dancing or not, may attend the
rehearsals; it is the very best kind of ex-
ercise to prepare -for any May Day part.
Only one pageant rehearsal a week is
being made compulsory for everyone.
The, committee feels that if the other
